Heh. The 3ID was notorious for looting.. err... scavenging items back during the invasion. We (3ACR) was being relieved from Fallujah (Before it went to shit) by them, and I kid you not, between the 3 577's was strapped two whole leather sectional sofa's they "found", as well as a ton of other furniture.

Me on the other hand, during a FTX during the Superbowl weekend (And wasn't we happy about that) got tactically sneaky: I figured out where we was going to be roughly during the big game, figured out in what direction and inclination I would have point a Direct TV dish to get signal, a nice large blackout tent, and a cheap small TV, with enough cable to run all the above from the APU. 1200 bucks got you a seat for the game, the 1SG got it for free (No dummy I - and besides, the CO had an "appointment" in the rear that night).
